Directions
Step 1
Trim the ends off the green beans and bring a large pot of salted water to boil.
Step 2
Add the green beans and cook for 3-4 minutes until tender-crisp. Immediately transfer to a bowl of ice water to stop the cooking process. Drain and pat dry.

Cut the cherry tomatoes in half and thinly slice the red onion. Combine these with the green beans in a large mixing bowl.
Step 4
In a small bowl, whisk together the olive oil, red wine vinegar, Dijon mustard, minced garlic, salt, and black pepper to create the dressing.
Step 5
Pour the dressing over the green bean mixture and gently toss to coat evenly.
